I got fuck all video of the three shows I saw, I was too busy pissing people off next to me by jumping around.
This is the kind of shit I like to see you post.

I sing along to even the songs I don't like, because I just cannot help myself.
My MO is to sing along to songs that I want U2 to continue playing, and remain quiet during those I do not.
I was mighty quiet during SBS and Walk On.
I wonder how much time of my life I've spent trying to decide what to listen to.

Aw, in Nashville SBS nearly had it's old urgency back. Sounded awesome.
And I don't know what happened to me and Walk On on this tour. It just killed me every time. I guess because a lot of people I know died in the last year so it reminded me of how it felt when they played it during the post-9/11 shows.
I pretty much fell in love again with all the stuff I'd gotten sick of.
except Elevation, which I still enjoyed even if it wasn't exactly love. Plus, if you read the Chicago setlist thread, you know it now pukes instead of sucks which is an interesting change.
this! million albums on my ipod and i can never choose!
me too! Much as Elevation is nearly the last song I'd like to hear them do, I was still jumping around.
should have seen me after the LCD show! I walked out of the joint literally drenched in sweat, and I was in the d-bag seats.
I don't know how I'll react to songs I don't like. Better just go find out next week.

The one song I end up singing along to that I don't really want to is "One"....it's always around "you ask me to enter..." when I give in.

Jumping to Elevation and "whoo hooing" it all up in this bitch is way too much fun to not do.
Even ol' One got to me all over again. It was the part whereon the video screen young U2 get in the car and drive away as Bono sings "we get to carry each other, carry each other"
I am not a huge Walk On fan, but, show me that 9/11 tribute performance and I flash back to how I was feeling when I saw it LIVE and then I start to lose it slightly. Or worse.
I also don't get why some people complain about ISHFWILF (maybe it's just Axver ). Singing that whole first verse and chorus as a stadium was one of the many highlights of the shows I saw.
... when I saw her name scroll by in Denver (home of US Air),
Hell yeah. That was after Bono's dad died, and my best friend died suddenly a week before the show, and a girl I knew from another fan forum was a flight attendant on the US Air flight that crashed into the WTC, and so when I saw her name scroll by in Denver (home of US Air), it was just all too much. I thought they might have to carry me out of there on a stretcher. That was one hell of a cathartic night.
How does it feel to know that a decent amount of people whom you've never meet, and likely never will, will all be thinking of you that night? We'll be thrilled for you and hoping against hope that you enjoy it as much as we all do.....
I have this awful image in my head of Philsfan's first U2 experience being somewhat similar to some crappy college frat house movie where we are all waiting for him to walk back in the room after bedding a prostitute for the first time.

Odd? I don't know how I feel about it.You'll remain emotionally neutral, I suspect.

I will be sober, so that won't be an issue. A person of my size doesn't start trouble.Just try not to start punching strangers if you find yourself reacting .... poorly.
I might let it slide this once.I look forward to your reactions. Will be watching closely for punctuation altered by excitement, !s, smileys, etc.
Replace "prostitute" with "girl I didn't have to pay" and "high fives all around" with "someone threw a plate of mac & cheese at me," and you have described an evening I had last summer.I have this awful image in my head of Philsfan's first U2 experience being somewhat similar to some crappy college frat house movie where we are all waiting for him to walk back in the room after bedding a prostitute for the first time.

The only time I had my phone out during The National show was during the encore.You shouldn't be texting anyone during the fucking show. Except during Elevation.
And of course you don't know how you feel about it, you have no feelings.
We'll be excited for you anyway.
I did sing along as well, primarily because Bono was about 10 feet away from me and I didn't want him to see me appear uninterested.
But how else is he going to get the message that they don't need to make it a tour staple?
